At just 20 years old, Tristyn Nowlin is checking off the biggest box on every golfer's bucket list.
Playing 18 holes at Augusta National? Got it.
"Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd be able to actually play it," Nowlin said.
Because of her ranking, the Illinois junior earned a spot at this week's inaugural Augusta National Women's Amateur.
The first two rounds of the event are being played at nearby Champions Retreat Golf Club in Evans, Ga.
Nowlin opened Wednesday with a 4-over 76. That's good enough to have her in a tie for 40th among the 72 players.
